[Gimp-user] Preventing closing a dock by mistake
Hello, I have a question which hopefully has a nice answer. :-) Sometimes I would close by mistake a tool dock by clicking alt-F4 a little too fast, while the dock has the focus, but I thought it was the image (and I wanted to close this image). Then the dock configuration (which tools were set there, which tabs,size and position of the dock and tabs, etc.) is lost. So of course, I can always recreate the dock, reposition/resize it, set the right tools inside. But that's boring. I tried to search but could not find a solution to this: would there be an option right now to prevent the tool docks from closing by the usual window-close event (so you could close them by the dock menu explicitely, but not by quick shortcut for instance)? Thanks! Jehan ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Just use the Lock options in the dock's menu :) Alexandre Prokoudine http://libregraphicsworld.org ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Nice one! I would prefer for them not closing at the first place, but that's already a lot better than having to rebuild them. :-) Thanks.

It does not prevent the whole dock from being closed. OK, I see what you mean. Is there no way you could switch to the single-window mode?
